Indian Scout Sixty Review

Used Buyer Review

The Scout Sixty is Indian's entry-level cruiser, and honestly, it punches above its weight for what you're paying used. The 999cc V-twin makes around 78 horsepower — less than the full-fat Scout — but you'd be hard-pressed to notice in real-world riding. It pulls cleanly from low revs, sounds properly American, and the ergonomics are genuinely comfortable for riders under six feet. Build quality is solid throughout. On a used example, check the final drive belt religiously — they stretch and wear, and replacement isn't cheap. Early 2016-2017 models had some reported fueling hiccups at low speeds, mostly sorted via dealer software updates. Also inspect the fork seals; they're known to weep on higher-mileage bikes. The lack of ABS on base models is a real consideration if you're riding year-round. For $7,000-$9,000 used, you're getting a genuinely capable, good-looking cruiser that won't embarrass you on a weekend run. Just don't expect it to haul luggage or keep up on long interstate slogs.
